both the Jews and Muslims alike respect a strict code of humane religious slaughter of animals for human consumption. Ever seen the badger hunters of Britain ?? Heartbeat once covered the practice extensively in one of its earlier episodes? - cock fighting was another one ?
That Guardian article was written in 2014. It mentions the cruelty found by Animal Aid investigations in 8 of the 9 so-called "humane" slaughterhouses they visited.
Later that same year, Animal Aid visited a 10th slaughterhouse - it was a non-stun "halal" slaughterhouse. There was certainly no respect for the animals and no strict code of humane religious slaughter taking place there.
This is the Animal Aid report on it:

After Animal Aid made their findings public, the staff involved were suspended, then the company went into administration and the abbatoir closed not long after that, but it took 3 years for the owners and staff involved in this animal cruelty to be prosecuted and convicted in court.

Thanks to Animal Aid and other campaigners, there is now new legislation which comes fully into force this November, which requires mandatory CCTV in all areas of slaughterhouses where there are live animals.
